Materials:
FLTRP New Standard English 8th Grade, Semester 1 textbook.
PowerPoint slides or whiteboard markers.
Handouts with exercises and role-play scenarios.
A timer or stopwatch.
Procedure:
Warm-up:
Begin the lesson by asking students what they think they should do in different emergency situations, such as a fire, earthquake, or someone getting injured.
Write their responses on the board or display a mind map with emergency situations at the front of the class.
Encourage students to share their own experiences or ideas.
Vocabulary Introduction :
Introduce key vocabulary related to emergencies and accidents, such as first aid, CPR, fire extinguisher, emergency exit, evacuation, etc.
Display pictures or flashcards representing each word and elicit the meanings from students.
Write the words and their meanings on the board or present them on the slides.
Practice pronunciation and ask students to repeat the words after you.
Listening Activity :
Instruct students to turn to page XX of their textbooks and play the corresponding audio track.
Ask students to listen carefully and answer the questions provided in the textbook about what to do in different emergency situations.
After the activity, have a class discussion about the answers and reasons behind them.
Speaking Activity: Role Play:
Divide the class into pairs or small groups.
Distribute handouts with different emergency scenarios, such as a car accident, a fire in a building, or a person collapsing.
Instruct each group to choose a scenario and work together to create a role-play based on that situation.
Encourage students to use the vocabulary and phrases they have learned in the unit.
Monitor the groups and provide assistance if needed.
Afterward, have each group perform their role-play in front of the class.
Lead a brief discussion after each role-play, asking the class what they should do in that particular situation and why.
Wrap-up and Reflection:
Summarize the lesson by reviewing the key vocabulary and phrases related to emergencies and accidents.
Engage in a class discussion, asking students to reflect on what they have learned about handling emergencies and the importance of preparedness.
Provide additional tips or advice on being proactive in emergency situations.
Assign any homework, such as researching different first aid techniques or writing a short paragraph about their personal experiences with emergencies.
Vocabulary Reinforcement:
To reinforce the vocabulary learned, play a vocabulary game such as “Charades” or “Taboo.”
Divide the class into two teams. Each team takes turns selecting a vocabulary word or phrase related to emergencies and acting it out without speaking. The other team members have to guess the word within a given time limit.
Alternatively, you can play “Taboo” where a student is given a vocabulary word or phrase related to emergencies, and they have to describe it without using certain key words.
Group Discussion :
Assign a group discussion task for students to discuss and share their personal experiences or stories related to handling emergencies.
Provide discussion prompts such as:
Have you ever been involved in an emergency situation What happened How did you handle it
Do you think it’s important for everyone to have basic first aid knowledge Why or why not
How can individuals and communities prepare for emergencies
Give students time to discuss in small groups and encourage them to share their ideas and opinions.
Wrap-up and Evaluation:
Summarize the main points discussed in the class and recollect the key vocabulary related to emergencies and accidents.
Have students complete a quick self-reflection activity where they evaluate their own performance and understanding of the topic.
Collect the group discussion notes or ask a few students to share their ideas with the class.
Provide positive feedback and address any misconceptions or questions that may have arisen during the lesson.
Homework Assignment:
Assign a homework task related to the topic of emergencies and preparedness.
For example, students can research and create a simple emergency preparedness plan for their household or community, listing essential items, emergency contacts, and evacuation routes.
Alternatively, they can write a short paragraph about the importance of first aid and what they have learned from the lesson.
